How do you put on the stock mufflers on your 2000 electra glide?

To remove the existing mufflers, first remove the saddlebags and loosen the clamp at the front of each muffler. Then remove the two bolts that hold the rear of each muffler to the saddlebag support. This will allow the mufflers to be removed by twisting them while pulling them from the head pipes. If they appear to be rusted to the head pipes and are hard to remove, spray some WD40 or other penetrating oil around the joint and let it soak in for a few minutes and try again. To install the OEM mufflers, first put some anti-sieze on the inside of the front ends of the mufflers to help ease them onto the head pipes and place new clamps on the forward end of each muffler. Use the same twisting motion to get them on. Reinstall the two rear support bolts on each muffler at the saddlebag supports and tighten the forward clamps then reinstall the saddlebags.
